[Bioperl-l] Bio::Search::GenericHSP from cigar_line to pairwise alignment

[Albert Vilella]

Hi,

Does anybody have a working tested way to go from a cigar_line back to
the pairwise alignment
coming from a GenericHSP (like blastp, etc)?

I can see that GenericHSP has the code for calculating the cigar_line
from the alignment,
but we (Ensembl) only store the cigar_lines, and would like people to
be able to go back
to the alignment in Bioperl. Just asking if anyone has done this
before I get my hands
dirty on it...

Cheers,

    Albert.
